Technical field:
The present invention addresses a kind of novel manifold type high-sensitivity polarization maintaining fiber evanescent wave sensor, belongs to optical fiber and sensor technical field.
Background technology:
In order to discern content of elements, obtain intermolecular interrelated information, extract, separate and identify required material, the micro substance that carries out high sensitivity, high resolving power, high selectivity detects, application in fields such as environmental monitoring, biomedicine, chemical industry, material analysiss is very important, and development prospect is widely arranged.Traditional surveying instrument and method, as spectrophotometer, absorption spectroscopy, they need be sampled, add reagent and measure to measured matter, few, the complicated operation of detecting information amount so not only, and also real-time is poor, sensitivity is low, waste of human resource is big.In recent years, the fast development of optical fiber evanescent wave sensing technology is expected to solve the problem that the traditional measurement mode exists.
At present, in the world a plurality of countries etc. to based on absorbing and the evanescent wave sensor of the multi-form and structure of fluorescence principle has carried out more deep research.The most general based on the research of principle of absorption optical fiber evanescent wave sensor, it is unmarked measurement, simple in structure, convenient test, but sensitivity is lower, as, the content of zellon in the patina halogen test optical fiber water such as Austria Jakusch, minimum survey is limited to 300 μ g/L; Germany Buerck etc. measures phreatic aromatic hydrocarbon content, the minimum 200 μ g/L that are limited to.Optical fiber evanescent wave sensor based on the fluorescence principle steps on a new stage for the raising measurement sensitivity steps, its sensitivity will exceed absorption 1~4 order of magnitude, pollute content as the explosive TNT in the usefulness fluorescence measurement water gagings of mark such as U.S. Shriver-Lake, measurement sensitivity has reached 8 μ g/L.Carrying out fluorescence measurement with mark is because 20~30% measured object mass-energy autofluorescence is only arranged, and most of fluorescence formula test macros need add some indicator (as the orange fluorescein of pyridine etc.) just can carry out assay determination.Fluorescence method is because a little less than the fluorescence signal, so need the high-sensitivity detection instrument, simultaneously underlined indicator adds also can disturb measured object molecule absorption ability and accuracy of measurement, causes test to pollute.By contrast, the correlative study of China relatively lags behind.The domestic research that also has some scholars to be engaged in this aspect utilized SO in the twin-beam compensation principle of absorption test water as University Of Tianjin but in recent years, 3 2-, minimum survey limit reaches 1600 μ g/L; Xiamen University utilizes the dissolved oxygen DO in the quench method measurement water, and minimum survey is limited to 30 μ g/L.
Up to the present, the emphasis of research mainly is placed on the evanescent wave sensor of principle of absorption, fluorescence principle both at home and abroad.But it is the difficult point problem of its application of restriction and development that unmarked high sensitivity and high selectivity are measured always.Therefore, study a kind of new sensor mechanism and method for sensing, solve the general character difficult problem of sensing technology in using, the Fibre Optical Sensor that achieves have good reliability, highly sensitive, selectivity strong, do not have sampling, characteristics that no reagent is measured be necessary, also be urgent need.
Summary of the invention
At above problem, the present invention starts with from the sensor mechanism of test, has proposed a kind of novel manifold type high-sensitivity polarization maintaining fiber evanescent wave sensor.It utilizes the melting cone type polarization-maintaining fiber coupler as optical fiber evanescent wave sensing element based on the evanescent wave theory of light wave coupled wave theory and optical fiber, thus the evanescent wave that obtains having coupling effect.
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of highly sensitive, manifold type polarization maintaining optical fibre evanescent wave sensor that selectivity is strong.
A kind of manifold type polarization maintaining optical fibre evanescent wave sensor of the present invention, mainly by light source, monochromator, sensing with fiber coupler probe or sensing element, detector, signal processing unit and fill by the container of side medium and form; It is characterized in that sensing is an a kind of melting cone type polarization-maintaining fiber coupler probe with fiber coupler probe or sensing element, and as the sensing element of optical fiber evanescent wave; This polarization-maintaining fiber coupler probe or sensing element are packaged in the matrix, and the polarization maintaining optical fibre awl district of a sensing is arranged in the matrix, and respectively there is the polarization maintaining optical fibre leading-in end of a sensing with polarization-maintaining fiber coupler at two ends, and it is fixed on the matrix optical fiber by fixing glue; Near the optical taper district, also leave the hollow turnover groove that tested gas or liquid is passed through and surround the optical taper district; Fiber coupler probe or sensing element are positioned in the container that fills measured medium, and are surrounded by measured medium.
The minimum diameter in the sensing polarization maintaining optical fibre awl district in the above-mentioned matrix is 5-9 a times of fibre core.
The principle of work of manifold type polarization maintaining optical fibre evanescent wave sensor of the present invention is as described below: when surrounding the media variations in polarization-maintaining coupler sensing nose cone district, the evanescent wave in coupling mechanism awl district will with medium interaction, different medium (or the different concentration of same medium) will change the coupling effect of polarization-maintaining fiber coupler, thereby the splitting ratio of coupling mechanism is changed, detect the parameter that splitting ratio just can obtain measured matter like this.Owing to utilize coupling principle, the output signal of test is the splitting ratio of coupling mechanism, has nothing to do so it changes with the light intensity of light path, and very strong antijamming capability is arranged; Because what measured matter changed is the coupling effect rather than the light intensity of polarization-maintaining coupler, so very high measurement sensitivity is arranged; Owing to adopt polarization-maintaining fiber coupler, eliminated the influence of polarization interference to sensor as sensing element.
If will distinguish materials different in the tested potpourri, promptly solve optionally problem, then can on light path, utilize light wave scanning, obtain the all-wave spectrogram of compounding substances, and then in signal processing, analyze the all-wave spectrogram, extract measured matter.
Manifold type polarization maintaining optical fibre evanescent wave sensor of the present invention has advantages such as simple in structure, highly sensitive, that selectivity is good, antijamming capability is strong, and it can be applicable to the high precision, high resolving power measurement, extraction, discriminating of liquid, gas in the fields such as biology, chemistry, medicine, environment, material etc.
